Come visit our family friendly log cabin getaway in the heart of the Adirondacks. Situated along the Fulton Chain Lakes between Old Forge and Inlet, we are close to all of the year round activities that this area offers. Hiking, bike trails, lake beaches, town parks, playgrounds, restaurants and more are all within a short drive from our home.

Living Quarters
The main living room features exposed beams, a smart tv, and ample seating for your group. (The pellet stove pictured is not currently hooked up, but should be by the end of 2022).
The kitchen has been recently updated with new quartz countertops, all new appliances including a dishwasher, and a custom 3 seat island.
The dining room is connected to the kitchen and has seating for 8 (4 chairs and 2 benches).
The game room is the heart of the home connecting the kitchen to the main living room. Here you will find a cabinet filled with books, puzzles and games. There is a table and chairs as well my favorite plaid loveseat.
There are 2.5 bathrooms in the house. Downstairs there is a half bath located between the game room main living room as well as a full bath attached to the primary bedroom. Upstairs there is one full bathroom with a tub/shower combination. This bathroom is shared between all three rooms, but does have a separate entrance to the king size bedroom.
Toiletries and towels/linens are NOT included.
Outdoor Living
There is a large wrap around porch that allows you to enjoy the outdoors in all weather. In the fenced in backyard you will find a fire pit and chairs as well as a deck box containing games and a child size chair. There are additional camping chairs located in the garage if needed or for you to borrow for any activities you are headed to during your stay.
Our lot spans three wooded acres with plenty of privacy in the backyard, but we do still have neighbors close by and ask our guests to be respectful of that.
